Kidneys

Our speaker last Thursday was one of our members, Darren O'Connor, who talked about the complicated legal, medical and ethical issues involved in kidney transplants. Transplants are regulated by federal law and the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) under contract with the US Department of Health and Human Services. Darren became involved with the subject when his brother needed a kidney.
In other business, the deadline has passed for scholarship applications, and our Scholarship Committee is evaluating those which have been submitted.
